but i think the blue arm- & breastmuscles could use a little more structure and details.
they are a little too undetailed for my taste.

Thanks for the two thumbs up!!!! He was fun to make
The camera dilutes the details a bit and there is more depth to the chest,stomach, arm than what really shows. BUT you are dead on they should have more detail. I hate to admit this but this guy was built with
air hardening clay which is what I used, up to about 6 months ago before I started using sculpty and was able to make more details. Replacing the arm would not be to difficult. Maybe down the road! It just took me over 6 months to finally finish this guy up.

****! That is just incredible! I know I haven't been around much lately but I am glad I stopped by today. TRAPPER you have done an amazing job. I love the small details, the stitching around the arm the hoses on his back and all the articulation. Top notch work here slapmonkey.

Man! I saw the evolution of this guy, and I have to say the end product was worth the wait. This is one of your best works to date John. Have to say the accuracy to the original design is impeccable! OUTSTANDING job you've done here!
The pics with the other figures are hilarious too! He could take He-man any day!

I'll talk to you soon.

Thanks Blako and you have been missed. That is my favorite pic out of all of them! Glad you noticed all the details I was worried about the camera diluting them down to much.
CONGRATS TO YOU!!!!!

That is some great praise for all the customizers on the board. There are definetly some I would buy also!!!

I keep meaning to ask: what were the ingredients for his arm, the big silver three pronger one that is?

Lets see????

Bionicle parts to create all of the articulation points. Different spawn pieces, hulk hand, sculpty, Panthor's missle laucher and it still fires I just did not show it with the missles inserted to better fit the picture

Personally I've always loved this design. It's probably been one of my favorite,w with an exception for the pants. I'd like to see a little more of a MOTU look. Was this guy ever entered into the staction contest?

Actually he was never really intended for the MOTU Universe. He was originally going to be a secondary character in one of my Comic Books, and then was later cut from the cast. I still used him in my portfolio though.
I ended up posting him in a commission thread as an example of my work, and the rest is history.
